Siteground Site Tools new UI is horrible.

The new site tools sidebar layout is incredibly clunky and much more difficult to use. Being able to see all the options made it so much faster to swap back and forth between areas of the site tools, and now the new layout not only requires two clicks every single time but it assumes that someone knows exactly what is under each dropdown. I have been using Siteground for likely over 5 years and I still do not know exactly what items are under each dropdown, which made the previous layout 1000% better because I could easily click the toggle and see the options - and have them all open at the same time so I can easily see all the options at once. This new way is just a major step backwards and makes it so much worse and so much more difficult to use.

Compare the new UI with the previous UI.

Also, I really do not understand why everyone likes flyout views like this. Just make them dropdowns and have it so everyone can see everything at once rather than clicking and clicking until you find what you need.

With the previous UI - you could have all options open at once and it made switching back and forth between sections of the sitetools a breeze.

tldr; I really don't understand why tech companies mess with things that do not need fixing.
